I like these federated services being kinda "rough around the edges"

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I've come to like it more than Reddit at this point. The community feel here you can't buy and can only make it with actual factual care.
The only complaint I have is a minor one, and that's speed and sometimes things don't load. Though I know that's a symptom of growing pains. That will likely be a non-issue in the future as the tech grows with the popularity of the community
Reminds me of Reddit in 2008 when I joined. Legitimate communities forming and finding their way. Wasn't super intuitive how to use or what to do, but something special.
Reddit has since just transformed into something almost unrecognizable, but its tough to beat the size and reach it's built.
On thing Lemmy is going to have to worry about is bots. I'm hoping the decentralization is a good solution to both monetization and bots. We shall see.
